Lack of transparency between the fees paid by producers and the costs they are supposed to cover What types of costs are covered by EPR and in which proportions? Transparency is required

Minimum requirements for extended producer responsibility Introduction of minimum

EPR aiming at internalising the end-of life Sound financial management
the entire costs per type of products; use of the funds collected and; – 7.4.2. appropriate collection and treatment of waste, control over the legality of waste shipments and quality of data and reporting.
Findings
From 2009 to 2011 Repak spent more than its income from producer fees; deficit was covered by the contingency fund Repak should examine how to reduce direct recycling costs in order to balance income with expenditure. In setting subsidy levels, the effect of the landfill levy should be considered. Repak should provide more transparency on the procedures for the calculation of subsidies paid to waste operators.

Ireland has performed strongly – but has infrastructure deficit Circular Economy needs ALL stakeholders to contribute (Industry, Consumers, Policy Makers) Realistic Targets for each Member State /European Objective Economic balance on
